I know Gavin won’t like this, but I simply can’t resist.

Tina found this in one of Gavin’s drawers today. “N”, apparently, is Nadine. Gavin was pretty upset that this was discovered.

And so it begins …

The Customer Reviews are certainly entertaining …

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watch’d, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

The job certainly isn’t an enviable one, but this is pretty amazing.

Dog Sniffs Colon Cancer as reliably as modern CDC techniques.

So I canceled my cell phone plan today. I’m going completely Google Voice effective February 2 (day my cell contract ends – end of billing cycle). It’s a pretty slick program that really has some amazing tools.

In 2001, Tina and I went through similar tech jump by eliminating our LAN lines altogether, going completely cell. I remember many people thought we were crazy. I guess this is Crazy, part II.

For now, I’m still searching for number on Google that I like and will be porting everything to it. Should you be in my contacts, I will let you know my new phone/text number soon enough.

Wish me luck!

So now Google is boldly proclaiming that they are supporting Flash in this move, which directly sticks it to the HTML5 standard Jobs is trying to push on iOS products.

Ouch!

New Years Day, 2011. Gavin’s first breakfast of the year = Donut. Eaten in his unique way of “Toppings Only”. Nice.

Beginning final steps to have site theme updated for new year. Stay Tuned …

Another example of ignorant masses getting caught up in the baloney of hip advertising versus the real-world practicality of technology.

I was cleaning out my phone’s pics the other day and ran across this classic shot I snapped while in a bathroom of a pizza joint in Tennessee.

Really?

Today, while Christmas shopping with Elyce, we happened into a local Barnes and Nobles bookstore. A book about MLK Jr caught her eye, and I bought it in addition to the books we were ‘gifting’.

While shopping, she’s reading. By the time we get home, she’s about 4 chapters in. Previewing what it would take to complete the book, she peruses the chapters ahead and notices that there are two Chapter Elevens (no chapter twelve). I told her she should write the author to point this out. She did.

As a dad, I’m just going to say very proudly that that is cool.

It’s official: The internet is now as popular as TV in the US.
